Frequently asked questions

The concept behind value investing is simple: identify stocks whose value isn’t reflected in the current share price and hold on to them until the broader market recognises what they’re worth.

Valuation-driven investing takes the concept of value investing (holding underappreciated stocks until the broader market recognises their worth) a step further, by taking the future potential of a company into account, in addition to the current business fundamentals. 

Growth stocks have driven equity returns across the world ever since the global financial crisis. However, with persistent inflation and rising interest rates (which typically benefit value stocks), the macroeconomic backdrop is changing, which could favour a value approach.

Passive value investments can offer exposure by tracking an index weighted by fundamental value, as opposed to market cap, which is how indices are typically constructed.

Investment risks

  • The value of investments and any income will fluctuate (this may partly be the result of exchange rate fluctuations) and investors may not get back the full amount invested.
